The pipe system is planned using the 'FXS2056 ASD Asyst Tool V2' software.
You will find a detailed description of the software in document A6V10728226. See
the chapter 'Applicable documents [
The pipe system should be completely planned before mounting and installing the
aspirating smoke detector and the electrical systems and equipment.
During planning, please ensure/note the following:
You know which area requires protection and are aware of the requirements
imposed.
The fire compartments are defined according to zones. The maximum size for
each zone is 1600 m².
The fire compartments conform to the applicable regulations and standards.
You are aware of all the customer's requirements and wishes.
You are aware of the ambient and climatic conditions associated with the area
requiring protection.
You are aware of how the air moves (e.g., air conditioning units, fans).
You are aware of any usable cavities in the ceiling or floor.
In the case of high ceilings, be aware that air layers may form.
Use the 'FXS2056 ASD Asyst Tool V2' software to plan and design the pipe
system so that you can enjoy optimum performance.
Make a note of all the information.
Assess the dust concentration in the room in which the pipe system is to be
installed.
Make plans for a filter box if dust load is visible. Even temporary dust loads can
lead to ASD soiling.
For quick and successful planning, proceed as follows:
1. Familiarize yourself with the features of the aspirating smoke detectors. This
will help you to select the appropriate aspirating smoke detector and the right
topology.
2. Find out about the possible topologies and the various advantages and
disadvantages of each one. This will help you to select the correct topology.
3. Get a clear picture of the installation location and the customer's requirements,
ideally by visiting the customer's site.
4. Familiarize yourself with the 'FXS2056 ASD Asyst Tool V2' software so that
you can calculate the details of the pipe system.
5. Work through the points listed below. Details are provided in subsequent
chapters.
– Draw the position and number of aspirating holes on a plan.
– Add a detection network over the aspirating holes.
– Determine the topology and draw it on the plan.
– Use the 'FXS2056 ASD Asyst Tool V2' software to calculate the details of
the pipe system.
